    American Gangster has aged very well but I'm intrigued at why you rate or prefer it higher than TBA?

    used to waffle back and forth a bit. black album may be my favorite jay album. but american gangster gets both darker and more joyful, is more carefully written, doesn't have justify my thug, etc.

    because the internet

    May 11, 2015
    List is incorrect because MBDTF isn't #1, CD isn't #2, LR isn't #3, Yeezus isn't #4, Grad isn't #5 & 808's isn't #6.

    was going to argue for reasonable doubt but realized i could just post the tracklist instead.

    in any event, here's something i wrote on it: http://2dopeboyz.com/2014/01/17/jay-z-original-reasonable-doubt-tracklist/

    can you imagine bring it on with az and nas jesus christ
